What's a Thursday without an update from this story!? It feels nice to be updating this story again! ^_^ Not much to say here except for two things:
Vegeta vs Hidan-INCOMING!
If you guys have NOT figured out by now I do not own Naruto or Dragon Ball Z then I dunno what to tell you guys! XD
Now with all that said and done, let the chapter begin already! ^_^
Tension arose in the air of Yugakure as the surviving spectators could stare at the two men in shock.
Just who did this man think he was? Did he think he could compete against the Immortal Hidan of all people?
"This guy is dead!"
"There's no way he can beat Hidan! He's a freaking immortal!"
"Should we help him?"
"No….Hidan killed the ninja protecting our village anyways…."
(The masked Shamisen-playing woman stroke the strings of her instrument as a testament to the thick tension in the air)
As Hidan pointed the tip of his blade at Vegeta, he tried his absolute best to hide his grimace.
"That son of a bitch broke my fucking ribs! Man he packs more of a punch than he looks!" Hidan inwardly cursed.
Vegeta smirked as he could tell he did more damage than Hidan was willing to admit.
"Now before I kill you two losers, let me know just what thing. Just what are those hideous robes you're wearing?" Vegeta questioned, noticing the red cloaks on the cloaks Hidan and Kakuzu wore.
Kakuzu narrowed his eyes as Hidan grit his teeth.
"Losers!? Kill us!? Don't be ridiculous you-"Hidan tried yelling before Kakuzu cut him off.
"We're with the Akatsuki. A gang of mercenaries." Kakuzu explained as Vegeta raised an eyebrow at the name.
"Akatsuki? How stupid of a name." Vegeta scoffed as Hidan's eye twitched while Kakuzu ignored Vegeta's comment.
"And like we said before, we have a mission to round up the head of Son Gohan. With him around, he could prove to be a thorn in the side of the Akatsuki so it would be best to nip that thorn in the bud." Kakuzu added.
"Unless you wanna try and get in our way. Besides we gotta take him out since he's a Super…Saiyajin or whatever." Hidan scratched his head as Vegeta chuckled.
"What's so fuckin' funny?" Hidan raised an eyebrow as Vegeta's chuckle turned into pure laughter.
"You fools. Do you think that brat is the only Super Saiyan in this universe?" Vegeta smirked as both men raised an eyebrow.
"What do you mean?" Kakuzu asked as the ground started to slowly rumble around.
(Insert Dragon Ball Z Theme: Vegeta Super Saiyan Theme)
As some of the villagers ran, Vegeta's hair slowly shifted from black to yellow as his eyes were slowly changing from black to blue.
Vegeta gave a scream of power before the aura around him changed to yellow.
Kakuzu and Hidan were nearly knocked off their feet from the power emitted from Vegeta's transformation.
As the smoke caused by the power of Vegeta's transformation died down, both men opened their eyes to see the sight of a Super Saiyan Vegeta.
"What the hell? His hair and eyes changed color?" Hidan blinked as he put his scythe down to get a better look as Kakuzu raised an eyebrow.
"So that's….the Super Saiyan Kekkai Genkai?" Kakuzu pondered as a smile adorned Vegeta's features.
However….the smile wasn't at all warm or friendly like Goku or Gohan's but rather it was the smile a cat would give before closing in on a mouse.
(End Dragon Ball Z Theme: Vegeta Super Saiyan Theme)
"I don't know or care what a 'Kekkai Genkai' is but yes. This is a Super Saiyan." Vegeta smirked as he noticed the awestruck expressions on Hidan and Kakuzu's faces.
The remaining villagers were at a loss for words as they didn't know who to fear more; the immortal Hidan who once terrorized their land before growing rogue or this strange newcomer who had the famed "Super Saiyan" Kekkai Genkai.
"I don't care what you became, you still won't hold a candle to Lord Jashin!" Hidan snarled as Vegeta rolled his eyes.
"Oh shut up, you and that 'Lord Jashin' can go up that guy's ass for all I care." Vegeta scoffed, pointing at Kakuzu.
Kakuzu glared at Vegeta as Hidan glared daggers at the Super Saiyan.
"You dare insult Lord Jashin! How dare you, you third rate, lower urchin piece of shit!" Hidan spat as Vegeta laughed at Hidan's anger.
"Oh shut the hell up and get over yourself. I'm not hear for some ridiculous religious sermon." Vegeta ignored Hidan as he sized the two up.
"Alright, I'm gonna deal with you first and then your buddy next. After all he seems more powerful than you." Vegeta smirked as Kakuzu returned the smirk.
"Heh glad to see how smart you are, Super Saiyan." Kakuzu grinned under his cloak.
"MORE POWERFUL! I'll show you more powerful, you dickhead!" Hidan got a good grip on his scythe.
"Alright, time to show you how much more powerful I am than that shithead over there!" Hidan gestured to Kakuzu with his scythe.
"I just hope you don't lose your head again." Kakuzu scoffed as that was the last straw for Hidan.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Hidan comically yelled at Kakuzu before turning to Vegeta.
"I'll carve your skull out like a Turkey!" Hidan charged Vegeta who firmly stood his ground.
"Yeah I doubt it." Vegeta shook his head in amusement before charging Ki to his palm before blasting it, point blank at Hidan's chest.
Hidan barely had enough time to react before he was sent flying all the way to an abandoned restaurant.
Kakuzu raised an eyebrow as Hidan came back up, chest sizzling with his anger boiling.
"Okay what the hell was that!? My chest is burning like hell!" Hidan yelled with a tick mark on his head as he gestured down to his chest where the chest plate of his Akatsuki robe was gone.
"And I'm gonna assume this was the legendary Ki, we've heard so much about?" Kakuzu pondered.
"Yes but how can you question that?" Vegeta asked.
"In this world we don't use Ki. We use Chakra." Kakuzu explained as it was Vegeta's turn to be confused.
"Chakra? Huh…so that explains why the inhabitants on this planet feel weirder than the people I'm used to." Vegeta stated in a voice of utter realization.
"Wait, this planet?" Kakuzu asked.
"Who gives a shit what he has! I don't care what this guy has I'll still cut his Mon-"Hidan's crass statement was abruptly ended with Vegeta's fist, deep into his torso all the way to the point where the bulge from Vegeta's fist was visible from the other side of Hidan's stomach.
Hidan spat up a mouthful of blood as he started to fall before Vegeta caught his head.
"Whoa, hold on there! It's way too early for you to fall out just yet! I'm not done with your ass not anytime soon." Vegeta snarled before throwing the Yugakure rogue ninja to the big blue sky above.
Before Hidan could even blink, Vegeta was on him like cheese on macaroni as he bombarded the rogue ninja with a well-timed series of blows all around his body ranging from his face to his nose to his jaw to his torso to his abdomen to even his arms and legs.
"Ugh!" Hidan coughed blood before Vegeta smirked as he seemingly let him go before sending him all the way to the ground below with a Ki blast, creating a crater in the ground below.
The villagers and even Kakuzu could believe what they had seen. This strangely-garbed man is on par or even stronger than the Immortal Hidan of all people?
"Damn you…." Hidan muttered as Vegeta powered his aura down.
"No way…who is this guy?"
"Is he some sort of demon?"
"No he's some sort of alien!"
Although Vegeta paid these comments no mind as he turned to the other Akatsuki, disregarding Hidan as he didn't consider him a threat anymore.
"Now then, we move onto you. I hope you can put up a fight better than your friend c-"Vegeta tried saying before Hidan's scythe came charging at him in an attempt to decapitate the Saiyan.
Vegeta narrowly jumped out of the way in time.
However….his cheek was nicked as a result.
"Well, seems like you can put up a fighter. Though I wonder how you're even still alive." Vegeta mused, ignoring the blood trailing down his cheek.
"Hehehe…." Hidan softly chuckled before his laugh turned downright maniacal.
Once the villagers realized the reason why Hidan was laughing, the women in the crowd screamed in terror as the men and children looked down.
"It's over…."
"He's been marked…."
"And here I thought he would win…"
"Game set and match." Kakuzu huffed.
The comments made Vegeta's eyes narrow in agitation and irritation.
"What are you people talking ab-"Vegeta asked before feeling a pain in his knee. Vegeta then looked down to see his right knee bleeding.
"What the hell?" Vegeta glared at Hidan before looking at his knee as Hidan's cackling died down as a maniacal grin adorned his features.
"Perfect! This is exactly what I wanted you dipshit! I've got you right where I want you!" Hidan yelled before he got the blood from Vegeta before skidding it on the ground below him for it to reveal a religious circle as Hidan's appearance changed from him having a pale skin color into what appeared to be a skeleton with pitch black skin.
"Well that's bizarre?" Vegeta said unintimidated which Hidan immediately caught.
"You're still not shaken by the power of Lord Jashin you worthless shit-sack! You see I am immortal!" The newly transformed Hidan chanted.
"Oh no! And once he's done with that guy he'll come to us!" One of the women yelled in fear.
"Will you all shut the hell up for once!? You're giving me a goddamn headache!" Vegeta yelled before turning to the immortal man in front of him.
"So you're immortal huh? Well that explains why you're still alive. But tell me one thing; what's with the blood?" Vegeta asked as Hidan chuckled.
"You see part of my ritual is to get the blood of whoever I fight. Then I can trap them using their own blood. It's the perfect death trap and you letting your guard down sealed my victory in this fight!" Hidan grinned in glee before laughing maniacally.
Much to his chagrin, Vegeta remained calm.
"Don't you see, shit head? I've already won this fight! Now where to strike….your heart….throat….so many vitals!" Hidan smiled. However much to his surprise Vegeta was the one to start laughing.
"You ignorant fool…you should've kept your mouth shut…" Vegeta chuckled.
"What!?" Hidan exclaimed.
"You shouldn't have told me your little secret! So all I have to do is keep you anywhere from that circle is that right?" Vegeta asked.
Before Hidan could say anything, Vegeta's fist was knee deep in the Akatsuki's torso.
Hidan's eyes nearly bulged, adding to his already freaky look before Vegeta shoved his hand into Hidan's stomach, making blood flow on the ground.
The men in the audience stared in horror as the women covered the eyes of their children, not wanting them to see the horrific, violent display.
"What…in…the…." Hidan coughed blood onto the ground as Vegeta grit his teeth.
"I told you I'd pay you back for insulting me. Calling me short is one thing but calling me a FUCKING MONKEY!? Signed your own death sentence!" Vegeta roared as he headbutted Hidan as Vegeta brought his head closer to Hidan.
"Oh yeah, Look at you! You were popping all that good shit a second ago and now you got kicked in your chest!" Vegeta mocked as he gave a strong knee kick to Hidan's impaled gut making him spit even more blood as Vegeta ejected his hand from Hidan's abdomen.
"YOU EAT A DICK, 'IMMORTAL'! YOU EAT A DICK!" Vegeta snarled before remembering something.
"Your boyfriend over there said something about your head being cut off. Hope you like your neck without a head on it!" Vegeta roared before chopping Hidan's head clean off.
The women and children who managed to get their eyes free from their mothers' hands screamed at the horrific display as Vegeta threw Hidan's body parts away to the side as he then took the initiative of blasting the blood circle Hidan had made.
"Hmph, some immortal. And to think some years ago I actually wanted that." Vegeta scoffed as the villagers could hardly believe what they saw. Was the immortal that terrorized their village finally dealt with?
Vegeta barely turned his head to see him being restrained with what looked like black threads.
"I can see…you're better than that Son Gohan brat we were sent to deal with." Kakuzu said as Vegeta smirked.
"Well you're smarter than your idiot friend." Vegeta snickered.
"Your heart….will be perfect for me!" Kakuzu said as he threw his cloak off revealing the stitches on his skin as the thread like wiring appeared connected to his hands.
"You see, I collect the hearts of the most powerful. I even made an attempt on the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju himself." Kakuzu explained.
"No way! The god of Shinobi, Hashirama Senju!?" One of the villagers exclaimed.
"If he got a hold of that Super Saiyan guy…." Another villager cringed at the image.
Vegeta however scoffed.
"You talk about this Hashirama guy like I know who he is. I bet that scar faced ex-boyfriend of Bulma's could handle him!" Vegeta laughed.
"What?" Kakuzu asked.
Vegeta yelled to the heavens as the aura emitted from his Super Saiyan powers freed him from Kakuzu's tentacle webs, much to his and the spectators' amusement.
"It can't be!" Kakuzu gasped before Vegeta suddenly appeared right in front of him.
Before Kakuzu could even say anything, he suddenly felt a sharp pain as Vegeta's fist was knee deep in his torso.
"Ugh…what…." Kakuzu barely got to mutter before Vegeta sent Kakuzu flying, as his insides practically exploded with an electrical, purple Ki, flying yards away to where Hidan was as he coughed through the webbing that was in his mouth.
"Damn…you…." Kakuzu huffed as Vegeta levitated over the two rogue ninja.
"Look at you two. The famed 'Akatsuki', huh?" Vegeta crossed his arms with a smirk.
"Just…who are you?" Kakuzu asked as Vegeta's smirk widened before he released a deadly amount of Ki in his palm as he leveled it at the two.
"Remember the name Vegeta when you're burning in hell!" Vegeta stated before releasing his deadly technique.
"BIG BANG ATTACK!" Vegeta yelled before sending his technique dead at the two whose eyes widened as it made its way towards them.
The result was destroying the area around the two, leaving a decent sized crater in the area where Hidan and Kakuzu once was.
Vegeta then powered down, realizing the fight was over.
"Well that's over." Vegeta said as the villagers came out of hiding as happiness overtook their senses.
Vegeta turned to see the villagers applauding him as they smiled at him.
"You're our hero!" One villager smiled.
"Thank you so much!"Another villager cheered.
"You're our savior!" An elder said.
"You're so cool, Mister Vegeta! Can I have your autograph?" A male child asked as a female child walked to him.
"For you!" A young girl handed Vegeta a flower.
Vegeta meanwhile felt nothing short of awkwardness at all the praise he received.
Not too long ago he would've been the destroyer of backwater villages like this but now he's sunken so low as to be considered a hero of all things?
Not even in his own world was he considered "good" by the other Z-Fighters for his help in the fights against Frieza and Cell for example. Indirectly but still.
With a huff, Vegeta flew off, much to the confusion of the villagers.
As Vegeta flew off, a faraway distance from Yugakure, Kakuzu stumbled onto his feet before literally stitching himself back together. After walking for a small distance, he met his partner who he started putting back together as he was in his normal state.
There was an awkward silence as Kakuzu finished his work before Hidan got up in an irritated huff.
"Man that fucking hurt! I've never had such pain before that guy!" Hidan growled, wishing he could fly after Vegeta.
"Yeah…if I hadn't used a substitution jutsu at the last moment, we would've been incinerated in that blast…" Kakuzu muttered, pissed off the mission to get Gohan was now an utter failure.
"Something tells me this won't be the last time we see him or people like him." Hidan scoffed.
"Yeah. And you know we're going to have to report to the leader about this." Kakuzu stated as Hidan groaned.
"Terri-fucking-riffic!" Hidan scowled.
As Vegeta flew to the Leaf Village, a beeping came from his waist, making him roll his eyes.
"Great." Vegeta rolled his eyes before the voice made itself known.
"Vegeta! What the hell are you doing!? I said don't get into any trouble!" The irritated voice of Bulma shouted through the communicator, clapped to Vegeta's waist.
"Woman, if you didn't hear, those assholes said they were after Gohan!" Vegeta snapped back as Bulma paled behind her communicator in realization.
"Oh…right….Hey! Don't you end the transmis-"Bulma tried yelling as she was abruptly cut off with the ending of the transmission on Vegeta's end.
Meanwhile in the Leaf Village, Goku was happily telling stories of his youth to the Rookie Leaf Ten and whoever else was in the room.
"Wait, some pig actually saved your world?" Shikamaru raised an eyebrow.
"By wishing for….panties?" Tenten blinked.
"Haha yep! Although before that Oolong terrorized a village by kidnapping their girls!" Goku laughed as the women in the room were repulsed.
"This Oolong definitely sounds like a real pig…" Ino shuddered.
"Oh wait! Tell everyone how you met Yamcha and Krillin!" Gohan urged his father as Goku grinned.
"Sure, Gohan! Okay so…" As Goku began his story, the Konohamaru corps were watching from a nearby corner of the hospital.
"No way! That's Gohan's father!" Udon adjusted his glasses as he stared at Goku.
"Yeah! And he's super strong! I heard he took out hoards of ninja and even Kages with no sweat at all!" Moegi added as Konohamaru grinned.
"Okay that settles it! I'm gonna train under him!" Konohamaru proclaimed as his friends looked at him.
"Seriously!?" Udon and Moegi simultaneously asked.
"Yeah! Just imagine it! If we train under him, we'll be stronger than Grandpa Hokage!" Konohamaru gleamed as Udon and Moegi immediately caught on.
"Yeah! That sounds good!" Udon agreed.
"Let's do it!" Moegi cheered as Konohamaru smiled a sneaky grin.
"Besides, I'll be able to get Old Man Hokage out of his seat with Gohan's dad training!" Konohamaru mischievously grinned.
"So dad, if you're here then…" Gohan began as Goku grinned.
"Yep! I got here with a spaceship like I said in my story." Goku said.
"And so it's time for us to go. That is what we're here for after all." Piccolo stated as he crossed his arms as everyone's eyes in the room, save for Goku, widened in dread as the realization of Piccolo's words immediately sunk in.
"No!" Hinata and Karin thought with vigor.
Kin looked horrified at the thought of Gohan leaving. After he saved her life when he had no obligation to do so? Although Dosu and Zaku didn't think much of Gohan's potential departure.
"Good riddance."Zaku scoffed as Dosu was silent. Though to say he was completely indifferent wasn't correct.
Teams 8, 10 and Guy were stunned as grief started resonating in their minds. For Ino, Shikamaru, Choji, Kiba, Hinata and Shino this was a friend they had known since the Academy and they were going to lose him now? To think their friend would be going so soon? Especially after Team Guy were starting to get used to him?
Though no team were more saddened at the thought of Gohan leaving than Team Seven.
Seeing the angst in his students, Kakahsi decided to speak up.
"…Well….we knew this day would come eventually…" Kakashi tried reasoning with his team although internally he was saddened. Gohan, along with Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura, had helped in putting his own tragic past behind him.
"Yeah….but…." Sakura's voice nearly cracked as it was because of Gohan she had grown to be as strong as what she was.
"…..It is…what it is…." Sasuke crossed his arms as he couldn't remember feeling how he was feeling now….Because of Gohan, he was seeing a life far different than the one Itachi put him towards.
Although no one was more saddened than Naruto.
"No…no….it can't be….." The seemingly endless flame in Naruto's voice was nearly extinguished. Before Gohan….no one had bothered to be his friend. But Gohan had accepted him more than anyone else and was the first person to see him for something other than the Knuckleheaded Ninja he had a reputation for.
Actually, no one was more saddened than Gohan who was nothing short of conflicted.
While he loved the friends and all the people he had met over his time in the Shinobi World, he had a home different from this world and had a lot of people who were no doubt worried over his safety and so he owed it to them to let them know he was doing okay.
Although he couldn't just leave his friends behind.
Before Gohan could open his mouth, a familiar Ki signature made itself known to Goku, Gohan and Piccolo.
"Hey! It's Vegeta!" Goku grinned as everyone turned to see Vegeta make his way into the room where Gohan and the other ninja were.
"Hey, Vegeta!" Gohan smiled, despite the emotional pain he was in. However before he even knew anything, he coughed out a slew of air as he looked to see Vegeta's fist in his gut.
Vegeta soon followed with a harsh back-handle to his jaw, sending him flying into a nearby hospital bed.
"That's for keeping me from continuing my training and sending me all the way to this different world, you punk." Vegeta spat.
"Gohan!" Karin and Hinata made their way to help the Half-Saiyan while Teams 8, 10 and Guy stared at Vegeta in shock.
"Hey asshole! What's the big idea!?" Naruto roared, outraged that this brute would dare attack his best friend.
Vegeta however paid Naruto no mind, much to his and Team Seven's chagrin.
"Hey, don't ignore him!" Sakura yelled as she was ignored too while Karin helped Gohan up to his feet.
"Thanks girls." Gohan thanked as Karin blushed at Gohan's thanks.
"Hehe sorry Vegeta." Gohan chuckled as Vegeta scoffed at Goku.
"You really are like that clown father of yours, brat." Vegeta crossed his arms as Sasuke, Sakura and Naruto glared at Goku.
"How can you let him treat Gohan like that!? He's your son, believe it!" Naruto yelled at Goku.
"Haha it's a Saiyan thing. Or to be more specific, a Vegeta thing and there's no talking him out of it..." Goku nervously chuckled as Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura deadpanned.
"Who is he?" Asuma raised an eyebrow, taken aback by Vegeta's hostility towards Gohan.
"Another of those Saiyans?" Ibiki questioned.
"I wouldn't be surprised." Kakashi narrowed his eyes.
"That guy might even be stronger than Gohan!" Lee blinked, surprised with how quickly he took care of Gohan.
"No kidding…." Ino muttered.
Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura scowled at Vegeta.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Naruto rolled his eyes in irritation as Sasuke could feel a migraine coming. Of all the people he expected to deal with this morning, Vegeta was the farthest thing on the list.
"Oh great, the Prince of dicks is here!" Sakura groaned as Vegeta fixed his glare onto her.
"What was that, pinky?" Vegeta snapped as Sakura cringed, mentally berating herself for being loud, something she would often berate Naruto for.
"N-nothing…" Sakura gulped, knowing Vegeta was several leagues stronger than her.
Piccolo noticed the looks of disdain present on Team Seven's faces and raised an invisible eyebrow.
"Wow…I didn't think anybody would dislike Vegeta so much other than Tien." Piccolo noted as Gohan tensed.
"Oh uh, I just told stories of you guys and they know how much of a tyrant Vegeta used to be, hehe…" Gohan nervously laughed as Piccolo stared at Gohan quizzically before deciding to let it go.
Something happened, Piccolo was certain. Then again how could Gohan explain his soul was nearly taken from a freaky dragon that fed on people's despair?
Before Vegeta could say anything more, several females' squealing were heard. Everyone turned to see nearly the entire female populace of the Leaf Village staring at Vegeta with love-struck expressions with hearts in their eyes.
"Oh my gosh, you are like…so hot!" A woman with swirls in her eyes swooned.
"Shiho…" Kakashi face-palmed.
"Where are you from?" Yurika from the Leaf's Cryptology unit asked Vegeta.
"I must say you are quite the looker…" Mebuki blushed as Kizashi held her back.
"Uh Mebuki honey….I'm still here! For twenty years! Remember!" Kizashi yelled.
"Mom…." Sakura looked down in embarrassment with a blush.
"I gotta say…if I wasn't already married…." Yoshino Nara held her cheeks with a blush.
"What a drag…." Shikamaru muttered with the most embarrassment anybody would ever see from him. Although Shikaku was calm outwardly, he was starting to hate this Vegeta for indirectly taking his wife…..
"I agree Yoshino…." Ino's mom smiled.
"Hey!" Inoichi yelled.
And several other women were blushing like happy fangirls in love with Vegeta.
"Wow, Vegeta's like Sasuke when I think about it!" Naruto chortled as Sasuke whacked Naruto's skull as he gave him a death glare.
"I'm nothing like him, dumbass!" Sasuke spat. Although he was internally laughing at all the fangirl attention Vegeta was getting.
"So what's your number? Where do you live?" Ayame thought with heart eyes.
As soon as those words left Ayame's lips, a depressive aura filled the whole room itself.
"Whoa! What's with all this depressive Ki!?" Goku blinked as everyone turned to see Gohan crying in a depressive slump.
"Damn it….Vegeta's taking Ayame!?" Gohan sobbed as Ino, Sakura, Shikamaru, Sasuke, Dosu, Zaku and Piccolo deadpanned at Gohan.
"Really?" They all thought as Vegeta scoffed at the female attention.
None of these vixens would ever compare to Bulma.
However Vegeta turned to see a woman with spiky hair and red paint on her face took Vegeta's arms, making everyone and even Vegeta himself raise eyebrows.
"Hey there…my husband left some while ago….so I was thinking…..how's about giving an Inuzuka gal some love?" Tsume lovingly winked at Vegeta.
"Oh mom…." Kiba and Hana sighed as Vegeta stared blankly at Tsume for five seconds until….
"Hell no. You smell like dog shit." Vegeta coolly rejected before getting out of her grip as she fell to the ground in both an offensive and depressive slump.
"Damn…." Jiraiya shook his head at the harshness.
"I've heard of harsh rejections but…" Kakashi shuddered remembering all the times he rejected Rin.
"Mom!" Kiba and Hana yelled as Naruto, Lee and Choji fell over from laughing so hard as everyone else cringed at the harsh rejection.
"That wasn't very nice Vegeta…" Goku whispered.
"Do I look like I'm nice?" Vegeta rolled his eyes.
"So what took you?" Piccolo asked.
"Oh I was taking care of some weaklings wearing black cloaks with red clouds on them. They called themselves Akatsuki or something." Vegeta shrugged as Hiruzen's, Jiraiya's, Kakashi's and every Jonin's eyes widened in alarm.
"What's wrong, Kakashi-Sensei?" Naruto asked as Kakashi turned to Hiruzen.
"So…they've finally made their move, huh?" Jiraiya asked.
"Yes…it looks so…" Hiruzen breathed on his pipe.
"Should Naruto be moved from here? No…if Vegeta was able to handle them with no problem with how it sounds like, then staying here with Goku, Gohan, Piccolo and Vegeta would be the safe option." Kakashi thought.
"They said they were after Gohan." Vegeta stated as it was Goku and Gohan's turns to be shocked.
"Wait me? Why?" Gohan blinked, not understanding why a group with black cloaks and red clouds would be after him.
"It could be because they've heard stories of how powerful you are and they could see you as a major side block in whatever their end goal is." Kakashi said as Vegeta scoffed.
"I handled two of them easily and all I need is their location of where they are." Vegeta snorted as Hiruzen huffed on his pipe.
"We have no idea of where their location is so all we can do is wait until they show themselves." Hiruzen said as Vegeta rolled his eyes.
"How pathetic." Vegeta scoffed at just how weak these ninja were.
"Tell me about it...I was looking forward to fighting these guys...whoever they were..." Goku sighed, just as disappointed as Vegeta.
"You Saiyans and your addiction with fighting..." Piccolo shook his head, not understanding Saiyans nor did he have any desire to want to.
"Anyways, are we going now?" Vegeta asked, much to nearly everyone's dread.
Eyes widening as he realized the potential lost opportunity, Sasuke decided to stand before Vegeta.
"Wait!" Sasuke said as Goku, Vegeta and Piccolo turned to the sight of Sasuke staring at them, although they noticed his gaze was at Vegeta.
"What's it to you, brat?" Vegeta asked as Sasuke exhaled.
"Please train me." Sasuke stated much to the shock of everyone in the room.
"What!?" Naruto, Sakura, Gohan and Ino asked.
"There's…someone I need to defeat and I want to make sure I'm strong enough to do so, so please train me." Sasuke humbled himself as he looked at Vegeta.
Hiruzen and Sasuke stared at Sasuke silently.
"To defeat Itachi…." Hiruzen said silent.
"He's certainly humbled himself….The old Sasuke never would've done this…." Kakashi thought before turning to Vegeta wondering what he would do.
Vegeta looked at Sasuke as he sized him up. He was short for his age with spiky black hair, a high collared blue shirt with white arm warmers and white shorts with matching blue sandals.
"Hmph, give me a break." Vegeta coolly rejected.
"W-what?" Sasuke asked.
"I don't train brats. Especially snot-nosed brats who I could beat when I was four!" Vegeta scoffed.
"Vegeta, that's kind of harsh, don't you think?" Gohan asked.
"Shut up, boy." Vegeta chided.
"Yeah! Get that stick out of your ass! Sasuke's one of the strongest ninja here!" Ino spat at Vegeta before a death glare from said Saiyan shut her up.
"So get lost, squirt." Vegeta huffed as Sasuke's lips and eyes narrowed before he activated his Sharingan.
Two Tomoe activated, Sasuke smirked at Vegeta.
"I can always prove myself to you, right?" Sasuke smirked as Vegeta chuckled.
"You fool…you think some eye bullshit will compare with someone like me!?" Vegeta demanded before powering up as a bright, golden glow appeared around Vegeta.
"Ugh, what's happening!" Shikaku muttered as he covered his eyes along with everyone else watching.
"Something tells me it's that Super Saiyan thing!" Inoichi answered as his suspicions were confirmed as the light fanfare from Vegeta died down.
In place of the glow, was a Super Saiyan with lightning around him.
All the spectators around stared at Vegeta in wordless shock save for Goku and Piccolo.
"No way...he can go Super Saiyan 2!?" Gohan blinked.
"Wait there's a second stage to Super Saiyan?" Neji asked Gohan.
"Well ain't that a bitch?" Kiba muttered.
"Going Super Saiyan 2 on him!? Seriously!?" Goku asked as Vegeta paid him no mind.
Sasuke stared at Vegeta in horror as he could nearly taste the power emitting from Vegeta. He was using 100 % of his power and yet Vegeta….
"Looking squeamish? You look like you've seen a ghost. Tell you what. If you can lay one hand on my face, I'll gladly train you." Vegeta smirked as he gestured to his face with his thumb.
Before Sasuke could say anything Vegeta cut him off, "But don't think it'll be easy…" Vegeta calmly stated.
Sasuke Uchiha could barely register anything as he was sent flying out of the Leaf Village Hospital….
Talk about a chapter, huh!?
Now as a quick rundown of the chapter; Vegeta OWNED Hidan and Kakuzu, the Leaf is now aware of the Akatsuki and in turn the Akatsuki will be aware of more Saiyans in the Ninja World and Sasuke has to prove himself against Vegeta!
Can he do it?
Only by reading the next chapter will you know! XD
Also in the next chapter, I'll answer how Goku got his Super Saiyan 2 power!
And speaking of the next chapter, Chapter 33 will be out Thursday September 5th so look forward to it then! ^_^
Remember to let me know your thoughts on this chapter and I'll catch you guys later! Thanks guys! ^_^
